Well we got a little rain last evening and that dropped the temps which I believe will lead into a rather chilly weekend and then on Christmas Day. The temps yesterday were chilly to start but soon warmed up to the low 70's which made for working in the yard pleasant after two hours of pickle ball at the rec. I started the day with my usual before 6 roll out to my routines that start with some quiet time to honor my Lord and give thanks for another day as well as lift up several by name, all after posting this ramble. All are holding and even a couple have return home from their illness.
I had a great workout at the rec and finally reached the 189 on my scale. That's the first time in several months I've seen the 180's albeit was just barely. We had supper with the Ross Family and of course it was delicious but mostly carb's with smashed taters and chicken and noodles on top, yikes that is so tasteful. GG use to make that and we all loved the flavor but it's not great for the flat tummy's. Oh well. I worked outside before and after lunch hoeing in the gardens and then the dead dry grass in the front yard. I dug up another wheel barrow load and used it to mulch in the gardens.
Amy and the kiddos came for lunch and then they decorated Christmas cookies for a couple hours as they filled the house with awesome smells and laughter and the kitchen floor was covered in sugar decorations. We missed having Annsley, Gabe and the Twins for this occasion as they are still in school until Friday. It's hard to believe the big day is Sunday and then a week later a new year. Where has this time gone, LATER
